Have some random shots from my day about
Earlier I wrote:
Work to do:
1. Clean exterior.
2. Fit new discs and pads all round, I'll also paint the calipers so colour ideas please! I'm thinking black or silver.
3. Fit new rear anti roll bar links.
4. Fit new downpipe as the old one has been welded up several times it seems.
5. Fix o/s headlight as it's currently failing to 'pop up'.
6. Remove interior and clean it all thoroughly.
7. Source good rear light clusters.
8. Figure out why the rear suspension was chattering when on the road, I'm told it's more than likely due to the damper bolts coming slightly loose.
9. Give her a good service with genuine parts.
10. Possibly she'll need some new rear tyres due to cracking in the side wall which is a shame as they have loads of tread and are a good brand.
11. Sort srs light for MOT
So, here's what's gone down:
1. Exterior spruced up.
2. New rear brembo discs and pads, fronts responded well to a good clean.
3. Fitted rear drop links, advisory on last years MOT.
4. Not bothered, not blowing.
5. Fixed with a replacement motor.
6. Couldn't remove the seats as the bolts were covered underneath with underseal so I left alone, haven't cleaned it either, just wiped down!
7. dcw helped me with the lights :thumbs_up:, only good ones I could find.
8. This was just the drop links! Suspension is creak free!
9. Service complete with genuine parts.
10. Rear tyres replaced which probably wasn't completely necessary but better to be safe :thumbs_up:
11. Still on now, wasn't an issue apparently!
Stuff still to do:
1. Keep it clean!
2. Clean carpets and seats thoroughly.
3. Ummm... Oh I got one!
4. Look into replacing rear engine mount as a) The engine shakes around a bit and b) Sometimes difficult to engage reverse.
5. Sort rough ideal from cold.
6. Fit front plate in the centre?
), looks very good!!
